	Hi,

	SoftMAC output the channel twice in the scan output. It should
display frequency and channel, but only once for each.

                    Protocol:IEEE 802.11b

->                  Channel:5
->                  Frequency:2.432 GHz (Channel 5)
The frequency output is needed by NetworkManager, which is why I added it. At that time, I thought 
that some tool or other might be scanning the output looking for "Channel:", not "Channel "; 
therefore I left both in. If we are sure that removing the channel-only line will not break 
something, I'll be happy to send your patch upstream.
Should fix NM, really, to deal with either channel or frequency and
handle each as appropriate.
